The first round is basically set (I did a lot of work last night and this morning), but I will wait until the TM tonight to start the tourney because I am a cruel, cruel man and I want you to suffer until the end! First I'm going to do all the administrative stuff, and then it's time for the fun parts:

Fight Structure

First Round: 32 teams broken into 4 groups of 8, 3 fights against each team, top 5 teams in each group advance: Levels, groups, and teams redrawSecond Round: 20 teams broken into 4 groups of 5, 3 fights against each team, top 2 teams in each group advance: Levels, groups, and teams redrawThird Round: 8 teams broken into 2 groups, 4 fights against each team, top 2 teams advance: levels and teams redrawSemifinals: 4 teams in one group, 5 fights against each team, top 2 advance: levels and teams redrawFinals: Best of 13

I'm making a slight change in the round-robin structure of the tourney. I will be taking Pege's Champions' League idea but making it my own. In each match a WIN = 3pts. a LOSS = 1 pt. and your totals from the matches (ex. 21 in the first round) will determine advancement. It's not much of a change, but it'll be more fun for me than just counting up W-L records, and it's my tournament, so NUTS TO YOU!!!that and I can put it into a (surprisingly complicated) series of tables for youAfter each round there will be a redraw of level, groups AND TEAMS!!! So your partner in round 1 probably won't be your partner in round 2. The tournament will be fought between levels 1-500. Everything will be done using random.org. I will be as transparent as I can about how the randomizing went without giving away any of the important results. I will give 2 days (From TM to TM) to complete each round due to the number of fights necessary, but I will be strict about the time limits and POSTING and CONFIRMING will be expected from ALL OWNERS. If one team member posts or confirms, but the other team member does not, I WILL DQ THE TEAM ([size=12]without good reason, so if there is,TELL ME) so be forwarned!

Prizes

Lumi has offered overnight bot time to the winners for the tournament.

Stsin has offered a half day of bot time to the finalists as a prize for the tournament

** EDIT ** Glitch seeds

I've found there are at least two types of glitch seeds that are going to be encountered, ZOMBIE glitches and KNEEL-DOWN glitches. ZOMBIE glitches are when Team A beats one of Team B's brutes but the fight goes on with the dead brute still fighting. For this fight you will do one of two things: either A). if Team A wins the fight anyway, then you will just count it as a win for Team A or B). If Team B wins with a zombie brute, you will throw that seed out and use an emergency seed.For the second type of glitch KNEEL-DOWNS, it occurs when a brute on Team A kneels down and Team B wins, even though both brutes on Team A have HP left. This fight will ALWAYS BE THROWN OUT IMMEDIATELY!!! All fights in this tournament will go to completion. You will go directly to the emergency seed. If you get a glitch seed POST IT ANYWAY, mark it as a glitch seed, and then use the emergency seed. That way I can check it and confirm. If you encounter a glitch seed besides these two types, post the fight, mark it as a glitch seed, and put up a notice for me to check and confirm it, and I will add it to this post

and now, with all that out of the way, on to what you're really here for....

THIRD ROUND DEADLINE: SUNDAY TM We\'re going to do a speed round here and get this tourney staring to wind down. Don\'t forget that you have 4 fights against each team in this round. Good luck and good fights

SEMIFINALS DEADLINE: MONDAY TM or Completion of the fights. Remember, 5 matches for each opponent in this round

as always, when posting results, please make sure to use the letter-number combination (ie. DD-15 or G-7) somewhere in your post so I know what I\'m doing when I cross-reference later on :) I\'d most prefer something looking kinda like this:vs. A-1fight 1:fight 2:fight 3:vs. B-2fight 1:fight 2:fight 3:etc.but I\'m willing to do some extra work if you at least help me out on the main point. ThanksBrutes that advanced have a star by their name. The group winner has 2 stars

First 6 seeds are up. I\'m splitting it up 1. for drama and 2. if we need more backup seeds I have to check my list of seeds so I can add them so I want to be careful. GOOD LUCK AND FIGHT TO THE FINISH!!!!

The Champions of the Lethal Lottery Tournament, by a score of 7 to 6 in the Finals are:Stsin with ozqotivtnoob ** EL BRUTO ** & Bitchy Bastard with dio-s4i

Congratulations on your triumph, congratulations to silverx123 and a dip o sitas for making the finals great, and thanks for everyone putting up with my crazy tournament.

against DD-15losslossbuggy seedloss BUT the bug in the buggy seed was only, that they fought on although they had a red cross, so we won... now we lost with the emergency seed... thats garbage... but ok, 3 point altogether

against FF-19buggy seedvictoryvictoryloss so 7 points out of these fights which means 10 points altogether

T-10 and R-23 pairs me with Yrobby who has already withdrawn from another T since he will not be around. I doubt he will be here to post or confirm anything for our teams. I certainly don't want to do 42 fights, post them, and then be DQ'd anyway :!:

Surely just one team member posting the fights is enough. Rule change please.

was hoping for 40+ but hopefuly it'll be enough with the upset over R-23

Please make a special note of the glitch seeds. Funny that I have them first. :afro:
